Engineering

Engineering is the science of designing and creating devices. The most common raw material needed to craft engineering items is metal. Mining is the logical complement to this skill. When an engineer reaches level 30 and an engineering skill of 200, s/he has the option to specialize in one of the engineering disciplines. There are two disciplines in engineering: Gnome Engineering produces trinkets and devices which have a variety of wondrous (and potentially unpredictable) effects; Goblin Engineering produces things which, in general, go boom. You do not need to be a Gnome to specialize in Gnome Engineering (nor a Goblin to specialize in Goblin Engineering).

From the Manual of Engineering Disciplines

Gnome Engineering - The gnomes as a race tend to excel in the design of items intended to manipulate and control the world around them. While they maintain a cursory understanding of explosives and weaponry, gnome engineering focuses instead on items that quite literally try to make life easier and more accessible. It is a discipline of theoretical possibilities made reality through gnomish know-how. Some possibilities, however, are never fully realized.

Goblin Engineering - As a race that finds itself as neutral in almost every conflict, goblins have taken great steps to turn science into profit. They embrace the practical applications of engineering, as evident in their radical designs of explosives, firearms, and machinery. Goblin engineering only maintains a passing interest in engineering theory: their inventions usually don't have the issue of not working, but rather working too well. It is certainly not for the faint of heart.

Gnomes have a racial affinity for engineering and have a bonus of +15 to skill. This allows them to reach L240 as an Expert and L315 as an Artisan.
